Estimated price elasticity

  • Exclude non-price related effects

Own-price elasticity for instant response

  • Estimated for the simple setups of Time-Of-Use pricing

and the complex setups of Real-Time-Pricing.

Assumptions 1. Different approaches for elasticity estimation give similar results. – Difficult to find projects/articles with similar approaches and models from which elasticity has been estimated. – A general lack of published own-price elasticity estimates. 2. The relation between elasticity estimations from different setups tested in the same project should be similar to

  • ther projects.

3. Notice times described in phrases like “Day-ahead” can be associated with a certain number of hours.

In 2012/2013 EU’s Joint Research Center reported from 281 smart grid projects in 30 European countries. Only 65 (23 %)

  • f the projects involved consumer engagement.
  • Projects have included up to 2000 participating

consumers, generally biased towards volunteers with specific interest in this development.

  • In the 65 consumer engaging projects in Europe two

projects included any version of the word ELASTICITY in the project description. – Commercial and industrial consumer

Summary of results from residential US DR-pilots (Shariatzadeh et al., 2015): Maximum peak reductions percentages reached

  • Avg. for projects including technological assistance: 38 %
  • Avg. for projects without technological assistance: 27 %
  • Avg. for Critical Peak Pricing: 34 %
  • Avg. for Time Of Use pricing: 17 %
  • Avg. for Real Time Pricing: 16 %

There are apparent benefits for certain program setups!

PREVIOUS PROJECTS: A search on Google Scholar for PRICE ELASTICITY ELECTRICITY ”DEMAND RESPONSE” has almost 7000 results

  • Early studies (1977-2000) on the “close-to-hourly” price

elasticity of households’ electricity consumption seem to have been dominated by Time-Of-Use (TOU) pricing projects.

  • Lately Critical-Peak-Pricing (CPP) and Real-Time-Pricing

(RTP) have taken over the scene.

  • Concluded: residential consumers have lower own-price

elasticity for RTP-programs than for TOU pricing, a result of information costs. (1)

  • Difficult to compare the results and price elasticity

estimates from these different projects

”Notice time”-dependent elasticity

  • TOU has a static/indefinite notice time,
  • CPP and RTP use different notice times depending on DR-

program structure.

  • Emphasis in articles on presenting notice times and

description of the standards for the communication with consumers has been low. Objective for this study:

  • Gather the results from at least 15 DR-projects spread over

the three types of pricing for DR-programs, where the notice time is explicitly presented.

  • Analyze the possible relation between notice time and own-

price elasticity.

From California SPP (Faruqui, 2005): 1. Adding assisting technology to DR-program : + 15 % (more elastic) 2. Changing from static to day-ahead notice time: - 34 % (less elastic) 3. Changing from static to day-of notice time: + 18 % (more elastic) Other pilots with multiple DR-programs:

  • (1) is supported by findings in NJ PSE&G RPP (Faruqui

and Sergici, 2010)

  • (3) is supported by findings in Washington GOPP

(Hammerstrom, 2007)

Averages without elasticity estimates from old projects (before 2000):

  • Avg. for all projects: -0.25
  • Avg. for projects including technological assistance: -0.11
  • Avg. for projects without technological assistance: -0.20
  • Avg. for static notice time: -0.34
  • Avg. for day-ahead notice time: -0.03
  • Avg. for day-of notice time: -0.11
  • Not the hypothesized effect from technology…!

How can comparability be assured in price elasticity estimation for DR-projects?

  • Challenges

– Hourly or averages for all peak hours – Exogenous causes for demand increase – Different price ratios

  • Suggestion

– Presenting detailed results hourly within the peak hours.

  • 6. Discussion & Conclusion

CU-DB model:

  • Enables consumers to be updated & participate
  • Consumers in competition with flexible generation in

forward markets

  • Opens the opportunity for both bidding parties to increase

their utility in consecutive market places

  • Risk of deterministic consumers is minimized
  • Wind power producers may exploit market power by

strategically bidding with a lowered wind power forecast

SLIDE 28
  • 7. Outlook
  • In CU-DB model: both forecast error magnitude and notice

time affect the market equilibrium

  • Market with updates can be beneficial for improved

integration of renewables.

Static Tariffs Day-Ahead Intra-Day Forecast Error Very High (>10%) High (10-5%) Medium to Low (5-1%) Demand Elasticity Medium Lower Higher
